Can you imagine anything more cringe-inducing that a bunch of lawyers singing opera?
But that didn't stop magic circle law firm Allen & Overy staging a production of Mozart's The Magic Flute at Glyndebourne Opera House earlier this month.
The cast and orchestra was composed of mainly Allen & Overy employees and alumni, and the performance was part of the law firm's music scheme that encourages staff to develop their personal interests within the workplace.
In previous years, the firm has also put on productions of The Pirates of Penzance, HMS Pinafore and The Mikado.
The firm also says it has purpose built music rooms available for individual and group lessons and practice. Guru hopes to God they are sound proof.
Here's a picture of no doubt 'willing' employees taking part in the production.
